We have two kinds of bike shops here: most common they fix and sell bikes with shopping baskets on the front which most people ride. The bikes cost 100 to 200 dollars and the staff are clueless (from personal experience). The other is high end bike shops which are few and far between. As the (knowledgeable) guy suggested (who works in a very good bike shop) the place where I bought my surly would be the best option but it's 20km into the city. Also they will have to order it and they will order something expensive to max their profits. And I will have to ride back when it's delivered, leave my bike with them etc etc. That's why I would just like to order a wheel myself. All this is because our trusted shop closed down last week
